    LOT 8 LOT 15 LOT 100 LOT 180 Stunning! That was my first impression of this fantastic collection. So many superb grade coins, superb strikes, wonderful old tone, beautiful eye appeal, in a word - sexy… the list of superlatives goes on. Handling a Complete Collection such as the Benchmark Collection is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and we are proud to present this magnificent collection, in conjunction with Strand Coins (who have compiled it over many years with the current owner). We have included many notes and comments by Mark Duff of Strand Coins due to his intimate knowledge of every coin and it’s provenance, as well as a comprehensive, never before released illustrated “Key” to each and every coin Obverse and Reverse die type. As such, the catalogue, the information and images it contains will truly become a Benchmark in their own right. The quality of the George V coins right across the board is simply unbeatable, the Florins contain so many breathtaking coins, the Silver issues are all struck up, the Copper has many amazing coins, and most of the “Varieties” are amongst the finest, if not the finest known. The grading by NGC is very even across every lot, and if anything, is sometimes conservative given the genuine superb quality of the collection. We are proud to offer this complete “Benchmark” collection, the likes of which may not be seen on the market ever again.

  • The Ship Halfpenny (1937 – 1970)

    The Ship Halfpenny (1937 – 1970)

    THE SHIP HALFPENNY (1937 – 1970) This Brushwood Coin Note is the first in the series and explores one of our favourite coins - the ‘ship’ halfpenny - the reverse was inspired by Sir Francis Drake’s “Golden Hind.” The design was created by Mr T H Paget OBE in 1937, and you will find his initials (HP) in the field below the stern on each coin. The ship halfpenny design was issued into circulation between the years of 1937 and 1967, eventually being demonetised on 31 July 1969. However, a final ship halfpenny was minted retrospectively for 1970, but only issued in proof sets of that year. In 1971 the much smaller and less popular “new half pence” was then introduced as part of the new decimal coinage. The original coin was not often called a 'half penny', neither was the plural said as 'half pence'. The usual pronunciation sounded like 'hayp-knee' referring to a single coin or 'hay- punce' in the plural, as for example in 'three halfpence'. Manufactured in bronze, with a diameter of 25.4 mm (one inch) and a weight of about 5.7g, there were 480 halfpennies in a pound (£1). Before the reign of Edward I the halfpenny had been generally obtained by cutting pennies in half and was at that time, like the penny, originally minted in silver. Copper half pennies made their first appearance in 1672, and in turn were replaced in 1860 by the bronze version, of which the ship halfpenny is the final example of pre-decimal coinage. KING EDWARD VIII On the accession of Edward VIII the new reverse design of the bronze halfpenny was first produced showing the Golden Hind, the ship used by Sir Francis Drake the noted Elizabethan sailor.
  • Gold, Silver and the Double-Florin

    Gold, Silver and the Double-Florin

    GOLD, SILVER AND THE DOUBLE-FLORIN G.P. DYER 'THERE can be no more perplexing coin than the 4s. piece . .'. It is difficult, perhaps, not to feel sympathy for the disgruntled Member of Parliament who in July 1891 expressed his unhappiness with the double-florin.1 Not only had it been an unprecedented addition to the range of silver currency when it made its appearance among the Jubilee coins in the summer of 1887, but its introduction had also coincided with the revival after an interval of some forty years of the historic crown piece. With the two coins being inconveniently close in size, weight and value (Figure 1), confusion and collision were inevitable and cries of disbelief greeted the Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Goschen, when he claimed in the House of Commons that 'there can hardly be said to be any similarity between the double florin and the crown'.2 Complaints were widespread and minting of the double-florin ceased in August 1890 after scarcely more than three years. Its fate was effectively sealed shortly afterwards when an official committee on the design of coins, appointed by Goschen, agreed at its first meeting in February 1891 that it was undesirable to retain in circulation two large coins so nearly similar in size and value and decided unanimously to recommend the withdrawal of the double- florin.3 Its demise passed without regret, The Daily Telegraph recalling a year or two later that it had been universally disliked, blessing neither him who gave nor him who took.4 As for the Fig.

    LOT 312 LOT 429 LOT 430 LOT 439 PART Welcome to our first Live Auction for 2015! This Auction has a simply amazing selection of many really interesting and high quality items, and is also very special, as it marks our 30th Anniversary as IAG, and 30 years of Auctions from 1985 to date. While we record this sale as Sale number 82, before our “numbered” sales we ran monthly Numismatic Auctions for 10 years, along with Jewellery, Antiques, Collectables and Artwork sales, so our real number of Numismatic auctions would be in the hundreds, and double that for total Auctions! Over the years we have handled some amazing items, and still hold a number of record prices for sales (including the highest price ever achieved for any Australian Numismatic Item), and I think this Auction would sit proudly amongst anything we have ever done. We here at IAG are all looking forward to another 30 years! Please Note: We have moved all our main Auctions to a Saturday, as we feel this best fits in with our clients needs. Major Auctions will be held on a Saturday, whilst smaller, more frequent Online Auctions will be held on a Monday or Tuesday night. We are continuing to expand and improve our Online bidding experience. As the first major Auction house to hold Online sales, our success has seen them go from strength to strength. We are continuing to evolve our processes to make them even better, and more frequent, and appreciate any feedback in this process you might have. We also do NOT charge any extra fees to live bid Online as others now are.
